Any restaurant needs to maintain a high level of sanitation. This includes repairing and servicing any appliances that require it so that they can function as needed. Make sure time is taken every day to clean up around the premises to avoid any hazardous situations.

Follow the Law

Above all else, maintaining stellar restaurant sanitation is needed to continue operating. Health inspectors likely come by your establishment twice a year or so, and if they find anything potentially harmful, then you could be given a warning or shut down completely.

Prevent Food-Borne Illnesses

Any time an outbreak of salmonella, food poisoning or other illnesses are traced to a restaurant, it makes headlines. Your restaurant could face a public relations nightmare if people get sick after eating at your establishment. Make sure all food is prepared in a sanitary environment. You should also be checking where your food is coming from and ensuring it is handled correctly.

Set Up a Cleaning Schedule

The easiest way to ensure your workers clean on their shifts is to make a checklist of tasks that need to be completed and to assign people certain responsibilities. Any new hires should be trained on the proper way to clean something and what chemicals to use. Certain jobs need to get done once a week, once a month or once a year, so make sure you write everything down, so nothing is forgotten.

Part of your routine should include scheduling times for professionals to come in to service all equipment. The experts at Commercial Appliance Service Company can come out as often as you would like them to in order to repair or inspect all your commercial restaurant equipment.
